always encourages me not to give up.
Yaming: Exactly. Now I do calligraphy to relax. I even like how the ink smells! Why did you
choose to play the guitar

5. How do you usually feel when you manage to do something
difficult Give an example.
It means when we begin something new or hard, the start is always the hardest part.
When I manage to do something difficult, I usually feel a great sense of achievement and pride. For example, when I first learned to ride a bicycle, it was really hard to keep my balance. But after practising a lot, finally I was able to ride smoothly. I felt so happy and proud of myself.
Listen to the conversation. Then role-play it.
